India had school on Friday and so I decided to take Reeve
to the movies for his very first time! Some friends were going to the 10
o'clock viewing of Despicable Me 2 and
we tagged along.
I was nervous because I didn't know what Reeve would be
like. He is generally good at sitting on the couch at home for the most part of
a movie but it doesn't really matter if he climbs all over the couch. The movie theater with other paying patrons is another story. Much to my delight reeve
did well. He sat for majority of the film (which was hilarious!!) and was very
much engaged with the content. Laughing at the appropriate times and even
roaring at a monster when other children shrieked. There was some climbing
however. It was to visit his new friend Tommy and so I was happy to let him
make his way down a row to share some popcorn and playtime.
He did so well that Kent and I decided to go again on
Saturday and take India too. We had a family date day and the kids were
thrilled! Reeve was a little more rambunctious the second time around but the theater was packed and I think the collective energy of the room charged him up
a little.
All in all I was very proud of Reeve and excited to have
another option for a family activity (or sneaky movie during the week with my
special little guy!)
